This chapter starts with a review of the basic rocket performance parameters, the rocket equation and staging. Different classes of chemical rockets used for space propulsion are then examined. The System Design Elements section guides the reader on how to size common components for a conventional chemical propulsion system. Electric propulsion and other potential new systems are presented next. This chapter concludes with two examples of preliminary designs for a propulsion system.
